Jasmine Oakley has a 1st class degree in Popular music from the world renowned Leeds Jazz conservatoire and worked with the likes of Ellie Goulding, Stormzy, Sienna Spiro, Nectar Woode, DC3, Pip Millet, Bel Cobain, James Vickery, Kenyon Dixon, Jacob Banks, Unknown T, Sophie Faith and Black Sherif to name a few. She is currently training as a vocalist herself with Josh Alamu (Vocal coach to RAYE, Jade and FLO) and have been teaching a range of ages and abilities as a professional vocal tutor privately, running her own teaching service ‘Vocal Works Tuition’ for over 7 years now.
When Jasmine is not teaching, she is working as a professional vocalist in the music industry. She regularly performs live as a lead or backing vocalist around the UK and London music scene in such venues as Bush Hall, KOKO, Metropolis studios, BBC Maida Vale, Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club and the BBC XTRA1 Live Lounge.
Jasmine says "I believe my ability as a vocal coach is strengthened by my current experience as a vocalist in the industry. It allows me to pass on relevant and current advice to my students on vocal health and practice that I implement in my own life."
On top of this, Jasmine is an independent artist with close to one million streams on her debut release. Jasmine states "I believe this experience helps me to offer upcoming artists a good understanding of how to build a career in music from the ground up."
I personalise each and every session I teach to suit my client's individual needs. I offer all my new students a 20 min FREE goal setting session where we discuss your wishes and obstacles and find out if we’re a good fit for one another. From here on we create a plan of direction for future lessons to achieve your vocal goals.
Together we will cover and explore the fundamentals of singing technique’s including breath management, expression, pitch and tone. I encourage all my students to bring along some of their favourite repertoire for us to explore in our lessons. However I also provide a wide range of inspiring rep to cover all sorts of music/artists to challenge you.
As vocalists we have an innate talent for imitation. Being inspired by others and bringing pieces of their tones into your sound is such an important part of the evolving vocal process. I ensure every lesson we have together includes a fair balance of focused technical practice with creative work. I want you to leave every session with me feeling an improvement and inspiration to continue your own practice.
